Katie Hobbs demands Biden reimburse Arizona $512M for border security 'failure'
washingtonexaminer ^ | by Anna Giaritelli

Gov. Katie Hobbs (D-AZ) will travel down to the state's border with Mexico this weekend to visit the border catastrophe in Lukeville, Arizona, following a scathing letter she sent to President Joe Biden for his handling of the situation.

Hobbs told reporters on Friday that she will visit the southern border with the state's top National Guard official as she navigates any state action to respond to the mounting situation in southeastern Arizona. The announcement came just as Hobbs's office released a letter she sent Biden on Friday in which she told him to reassign military to the hard-hit area and reimburse Arizona for $512 million spent responding to the border crisis.

Including reimbursements for all those $5k visa cards AZ is handing out, free phones and plane tickets to wherever? Yo yo, Katie, those freebies should come out of your pocket.

Good thing she took down the shipping-container ‘wall’ as soon as she took office.

Didn’t she see what happened to Mayor Adams of New York when he complained about the migrants?

Looks like someone is about to get a visit from the DOJ!

She’s probably trying to pretend she is doing something. But if she gets serious about this, she will probably be charged with some crime like New York’s Mayor was.

She doesn’t care about the border.

She just wants the money.

The trouble would be picking the charges - any future prosecutor would have a bonanza of choices.

She’s lowballing but she wants her cut of what the illegals are getting as they cross the border into AZ.

What they should do is build a permanent stage and podium on the border for lying corrupt politicians to hold their photo ops at the border. They can have a photo ops every month like they've done for 50 years...

Blap!
